The shoulder is one of the most unique joints in the human body. While, most joints have range of motion, the shoulder has volume of motion. This freedom of motion allows the shoulder to be the base of power for all throwing sports. Also, because of this freedom of motion the shoulder is subjected to instability, injuries, and overuse injuries.

The wrist and hand are the most human of all joints. In some sports they are used in a aggressive, ballistic motion, such as boxing, where in other sports they are used in an articulate fashion, such as throwing a curve ball.

The hip is the seat of power for all lower extremity motion. It is true ball and socket joint, and therefore very stable. Recent research has uncovered new diagnostic considerations, and treatment options.

The knee is the connection of the base joint of the ankle and the power generator of the hip. It allows us to run, jump, turn and twist efficiently. It is exposed to injury during rapid declaration, contact collision, and overuse situations.

The foot and ankle are the foundation for all weight bearing activities. They connect the ground to all the joionts above. They are vital for the biochemical chain of the lower extremity. The power function of the foot and ankle is necessary for this lower efficiently.
